Your information

How your information is handled

  • We never take custody of controlled unclassified information (CUI). Not by email, not on a drive, not even to look at.
  • If your work falls under ITAR, tell us on the first call.
  • We look at where information goes, not at the information itself. We walk your office and floor with a checklist and ask who receives drawings, where files are saved, and what gets emailed. We don’t open, copy, or take drawings or files.
  • Your IT provider keeps the technical work: installing, setting up, and running your systems.

Please don’t send us drawings, contracts, or controlled information, by email or through this site. We don’t need them.

Where controlled information goes in an example shop

Where controlled information goes in an example shop Drawings come in from the prime by email to the office, are saved on the file server, go to the CAM programming PC, then to the machines on the floor and the quality room. First article and CMM reports go back to the prime. Six places where scope quietly grows are marked: email that forwards automatically, the estimator quoting off the same drawings, a programmer's personal laptop, the reports going back to the prime, a second building, and outside processors such as plating or heat treat that receive your drawings. Nexxus sits outside the shop: we look at where information goes, not at the information itself.

An example shop. Every shop is different; the site visit maps yours. Orange marks the places where scope quietly grows:
  1. a programmer’s personal laptop
  2. email that forwards automatically
  3. the estimator quoting off the same drawings
  4. first article inspection reports (FAIRs) and coordinate measuring machine (CMM) reports going back to the prime
  5. a second building
  6. outside processors, like plating or heat treat, that receive your drawings
